NEWPORT — John W. Floyd has retired from the Pend Oreille Conservation District Board of Supervisors after more than 13 years of dedicated service.
“John’s leadership, commitment, and passion for conservation education have made a lasting impact on our district, our partners, and the community we serve,” a POCD Facebook status read. “His guidance and thoughtful perspectives have helped shape programs that will benefit Pend Oreille County for years to come.”
According to the POCD website, “The mission of the Pend Oreille Conservation District is to protect and enhance all natural resources including, but not limited to, air, soil, forest, wildlife, water, and land in the district through education, partnerships, and implementation using best management practices and financial/ technical assistance.”
Regular board meetings are held at 4 p.m. the third Tuesday of each month. Meetings are held both in person and virtually. Send an email to admin@ pocd.org for a link to join these meetings or to RSVP if planning to attend in person. Minutes are posted once they have been approved and singed by the POCD board of supervisors. Board members include vice chair George Stuivenga, Mike Mumford and Jon Paul Driver.
Coming up, the POCD is hosting a Forestland Grazing and Silvopasture Program from 9:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. Friday, June 19. To sign up, go to pocd.org/ forestland-grazing-silvopasture- program.
